pinecone 26 #1 Posted November 20, 2014 just got back. i'm sure i broke no speed or mileage records (riding my 312) home. about 3 miles. i have no trailer of truck and don't like to ask favors if i can do it myself. old fool attitude. sold the property i bought it for and now it sits in my garage for the winter. i can mow my lawn now in 10 minutes, that includes checking it out and starting it up. fingers are frozen and the flask was empty way, way to early. pretended to blow leaves off the road all the way. police are tough here as i go by million $$ homes. didn't want to be the first to get a dwi on a wh. all went well as i told my wife nothing till i got home. by the way i'm not selling even if i just putt around. love it. tomorow the modle t comes home the same way if i can get it started. by the way i have a bunch of old car parts from the teens to the thirties, carbs, lamps, brake linings, magnetos, most not new or in great shape but a few are. i just want them all gone so, free if you are local. also have an engine with no markings that i can see, looks like a 30's-40's large briggs from online pictures, that is guiet heavy, turns freely is all i can tell you, looks fine. also free. have a great turkey day and be happy your not in buffalo. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geno 1,928 #2 Posted November 20, 2014 Glad you made it home without getting frostbite or a DUI. A DUI on a that would be a first for a I've heard of. I have seen DUI's and people hauled to jail on other brands on World's Dumbest Videos though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,040 #7 Posted November 20, 2014 Driving a WH 3 miles down the road in Ridgefield will attract some attention for sure!! Town of the million dollar houses.. Loud hot rodded cars will get you a ticket in Ridgefield too. Ask me how I know 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Molon_Labe 731 #8 Posted November 20, 2014 That's a great story and glad you got home okay. If it's as cold there as it is here, I'd have taken a flask along too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cstempert 27 #9 Posted November 20, 2014 Pinecone. When can we do some picking at the property? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheel-N-It 2,967 #10 Posted November 20, 2014 That must have been a nice drive if it was not too cold. I remember back in 1991 when I bought my first wheel horse, I took it for a 6 mile drive out in th country. That was fun and I have not done it since.
